It appears that I will once again be shopping for boot heaters. I currently have Hotronics. They didn't even make it to one full season. I bought them in the middle of last season and they worked just fine. The shop switched them to my new boots and no workie this weekend. They seemed to charge up but the right one shuts itself off after just moments and the left dials down the setting all on its own. I took a look at the wire on the right heater and it is split vertically up near the battery pack. It looks like it was done by an Exacto knife or was folded in half and developed a stress fissure.
At any rate, I've heard other disappointing stories about the fragility of Hotronics. Does anyone have a recommendation re another brand or should I just replace and hope for the best? I've been skiing for decades but last year was the first time I'd ever used heaters. I'm now spoiled and I don't want to go back.
